Designing Performance Measurement and Management Systems

Projects in this area focus on questions such as, how can managers choose which performance measures to implement in their organisations? How can they ensure that these measures are consistent with their organisation's strategies? How can they ensure that these measures encourage appropriate behaviours?

There is already a wide literature on the creation of KPIs and Balanced Scorecards for most situations, but there is less understanding of how this should be done in research, innovative and fast moving environments or in different cultural settings.

Prof Mike Bourne, Centre for Business Performance is happy to consider applications from people interested in working in any of the three broad areas outlined above.
